Loss of the Spaniards, 10 Ships;
Americans, None.
Montojo's Vessels All Either
Sunk, Burned or Disabled by
the American Tars Under the
Man Who Fought with Admi-
ral Farragut.
Commodore Dewey‘s fleet has won a
magnificent victory in the Philippines.
The Spanish fleet of some ten vessels
had not the courage to meet the- six
ships of the American fleet in the open
sea, but retired under the heavy mod—
em guns of Forts Cavite and Manila,
which protect the entrance to Manila
Bay. Commodore Dewey at 5 o’clock
yesterday morning went boldly in, fac—
Ing the guns of forts and fleet. After
fearful havoc he retired to renew the
attack at 9 o’clock, and finished his
work, the forts of Cavite and Manila
doing their utmost.
The entire Spanish fleet seems to have
been destroyed, and, so far as known,
Commodore Dewey did not lose a ship.
The news comes by way of Madrid, and
the best the Minister of Marine could
do was to cable COngratula'tions on the
valor of the Spanish crews “under fire
of superior warships.”
The Spanish still possess Manila, it
seems, because they control the cables,
and their news reports say further
American operations will be conducted
under great difficulty owing to want of
a base of supply for coal, ammunition
and repairs.
London tells us that the entrance to
Manila is heavily mined. The imlprob-
able suggestion is made, therefore, that
the American Commodore will make
for San Francisco. -'
Madrid, May 2.-—-A.dvices from Manila
say that the American squadron, un-
der Commodore Dewey. appeared off
the Bay of Manila at 5 o’clock aster-
day morning and opened ‘a strong can-
nonade against the Spanish squadron
and forts protecting the harbor. The
Spanish second-class cruiser Don Juan
de Austria was severely damaged and
her commander was killed. Another
Spanish vessel was burned. The Amer-
ican squadrbn retired, having also sus—
tained severe damage.
A second naval engagement followed,
in which, the. American squadron'agairn
the ’
suffered obnsiderable loss -" and
Spanish warship Isla de Mindanao and
Don Antonio de Ulloa were slightly
damaged.
Following is the text of the official
dispatch from the Governor General of
the Philippines to the Minister of War,
Lieutenant General Correa, as to the
engagement off Manila: “Last night.
April 30, the batteries at the entrance
to the fort announced the arrival of
the enemy’s squadron, forcing a pas—
sage under the obscurity of the night.
At daybreak the enemy took up posi-
tions, opening with a strong fire against
Fort Cavite and the arsenal. Our fleet
engaged the enemy in a brilliant com-
bat, protected by the Cavite and Ma-
They obliged the enemy,
with heavy loss, to maneuver repeated-
ly. At 9 o’clock the American squad-
ron took refuge behind the foreign mer-
ghant shipping on the east side of the
ay.
"Our fleet, considering the enemy's
superiority, naturally suffered a severe
loss. The Maria Christina is on fire and
another ship. believed to be the Don
Juan de Austria. was blown up.
‘I‘There was considerable loss of life.
Captain Cadarso. commanding the
Maria Christina. is among the killed. I
cannot now give further details. The
spirit of the army, navy and volunteers
is excellent."
According to late official telegrams
the Spanish cruiser Castilla was also
burned. The other ships retired from
the combat, some being sunk to avoid
their falling into the enemy’s hands.
An official telegram received at a later
hour from the Governor General of the
Philippines says: ”Admiral Montojo
has transferred his flag to the cruiser
Isla de Cuba from the cruiser Reina
Maria Christina. The Reina Maria
Christina was completely burned. as
was also the cruiser Castilla. the other
ships having to retire from the corn-
bat and some being sunk to avoid their
falling into the hands of the enemy."
El Heraldo de Madrid says that Ad-
miral Montojo changed his flagship dur-
ing the engagement or between the two
encounters in order the better to direct
the maneuvers. In this way he escaped
the fate of the commander of the Reina
Maria Christina. The second engage-
ment, according to El Heraldo, was ap-
parently begun by the Americans, after
landing their wounded on the West side
of the bay. In the latter engagement
the Spanish warships Mindanao and
Ulloa suffered heavily. Ministers speak
of “serious but honorable losses.”
CAPITAL EXCITED BY VICTORY.
Probable Manner in \‘I’llich Spain's
Fleet Was \Vliipped.
Washington, May 2.——-President Mc-
Kinley is receiving congratulations
over the great victory of Commodore
Dewey’s fleet in Manila Bay. Although
the reports come from Spanish sources,
which, in ordinary circumstances,
would be colored to satisfy Spain’s
pride, the action apparently has been
so overwhelming in favor of the Amer-
icans that the outcome could not be left
In the slightest doubt.
The Spanish fleet has been wiped out
of existence. The vessels that have not
been sunk or burned have either been
captured or driven to seek shelter close
under the Krupp guns of the Manila.
batteries, where they will be taken
later. From all accounts two battles
were fought—the first near the mouth
of the bay and the second inside. It is
probable that Commodore Dewey at—
tacked the Spanish fleet in column for-
mation, and that they prepared to meet;
him in line of battle.
HOW IT WAS FOUGHT.
Dewey cut the enemy’s line in the
middle and then turned all his atten-
tion to the wings. This is shown by the
annihilation of the flagship Reina Maria,
Cristina, which would naturally be the
centre of the Spanish line of battle. The
Don Juan de Austria and the Castilla,
also in the same Wing, reports say. were
sunk. other vessels of the wing re-

eeiving the severe and concentrated fire
were damaged seriously. The gunnery
of the forts at this time is reported
bad. This probably was owing to the
(act that the first encounter took place
well off the shore, and also that the
American ships were in such a position
that the Spanish gunners in the bat—
Ierles were deterred from accurate fir-
Inigsfor fear of injuring their own ves-
Ie .
The Spanish wing, not cut off in the
first encounter, seeing the destruction
wrought upon their consorts, made off
up the bay under a hot fire from the
Americans, who, by this time, were
ready to deal with them.
SECOND ENCOUNTER.
After repairing damages and attend-
ing to his wounded, Commodore Dewey
led his fleet after the enemy, which
had sought temporary safety ”near the
forts. It was here that the complete
victory over the ships of Spain was ac-
quired. The dispatches state in the
second encounter the Cavite forts main—
tained a steadier and stronger fire on
the Americans than in the first en-
gagement. Ourvessels then had come
closer to them in order to destroy the
remnants of the Span-ish squadron. It
Is highly probable that we have cap-
tured more than one of the Spanish
war vessels.
Those not captured are either sunk or
aground. In the damaged condition
none of them would have sought safety
by flight to sea. From the nature of
the engagement, it was fought at close
range.
The American ships are none of them
armored. Tfheir sides easily could be
pierced by the smallest guns.
The dispatches state the American
vessels landed their wounded before
beginning the second encounter. There-
fore our side has not escaped unin-
Iured. Naval officers hardly believe
that Commodore Dewey would put his
Injured men ashore. If they were re-
moved from the vessels at all they
probably were placed aboard one or the
other of the merchant vessels which ac-
companied the fleet as colliers and
ltoreships.
“REMEMBER THE MAINE.”
In the battle It s likely that the
forts also received attention from the
American gunners. The casualties
ashore, as well as aboard the enemy’s
squadron, will undoubtedly be heavy.
That the American tars fought with
vigor there. is no doubt. It is likely that
more than once the battle cry of “Re-
member the Maine!" was passed from
man to man.
It will be surprising if the Spanish
losses do not foot up many more than
266.
The creWS of the three ships, add
mi-tted by the Spanish authorities to
have been sunk, number 800 men, and
the greater part of these surely were
Itilled or drowned. As all small boats
were either left behind or dropped over-
board at the beginning of the action,
there was absolutely no chance for an
effort to be made to save life on the
sinking Ships.
Reliable details of the battle hardly
will reach us until some veSSel which
was in Manila at the time, reaches
Hong Kong, whence the news can be
wired without the interference of the
Spanish censor. In the meantime anx—
iety will fill the hearts of those who
have friends or relativeson board the
squadron.
SPANIARDS FOUGHT WELL.
That the Spaniards fought well and
lo the death is shown by the destruc-
tion wrought. They did not run away
until such a movement was a military
necessity. Even then they retired only
to the support of the batteries on shore.
It detracts only little from Commo-
iore Dewey’s credit to admit that the
Spaniards Were at a great disadvan-
tage. Their shipes were old, slow and
In no way up to the standard of ours.
The Cristina was steel, with protected
leek, but no armor. The Don Juan was
Iron without protection, like her sister
ship, the Ulloa. The Isle de Cuba and
the Isle de Luzon were steel, but they
were small vessels of less tonnage than
the Concord, which is only 1,700 tons.
The Spanish guns were in no way the
equal of ours. It is probable that their
ammunition was faulty.
Torpedoes are not mentioned in the
dispatches. It is probable that If they
were used, no damage was rlue to them.
The battle was won by the rapid and
:ontinuous fire of the eight-inch guns
of the larger ships, whose pli’inging
shot at the short range certainly must
have hailed the enemy time and again.
The lighter guns of the fleet also were
not idle.

MINES IN MANILA BAY.
London Hears That the Plucky Com-
modore May Have to Retire
for Supplies.
London, May 2.——\Vhile it is quite
clear that the Spanish squadron has
suffered a crushing defeat, the dis-
patches leave unclear the intensely in-
teresting question whether the Amer-
!can squadron‘ has suffered material
damage. _
All news thus far comes from Span—
ish sources, but it seems evident that
Commodore Dewey has not captured
Manila. Unless he is able to make an-
other attack and capture the town he
will be in an awkward position, hav-
Ing no base upon which to retire and to
refit.
Probably, therefore, the United States
squadron will be obliged to make for
San Francisco, as the entrance to Ma-
nila Bay was heavily mined.
Commodore Dewey displayed great
oluck and daring in making for the in-
ner harbor. According to private ad-
vices received from Madrid the United
States cruisers Olympia and Raleigh
and two other vessels the names of
which are not given entered the harbor.
No dispatches give details as to the ves-
sels actually engaged. on either side.
It appears to be incorrect that 'the
American ships finally anchored behind
the merchantmen on the east side of
the bay. It probably rwas the west side.
The probabilities are that the second
engagement occurr'rcd through the
Spaniards trying to prevent the landing
of the American wounded.
Spanish Losses Contessedly Heavy.
Madrid, via. Paris, May 2.-—The Span-
ish Ministry of Marine has received a
dispatch saying that the Amer-loan fleet
was obliged to retreat after a terrible
engagement off Manila.
The dispatch says the Spanish losses
were heavy and that the American
ships were severely damaged.

is upon some merchant vessel which
may be coming to Hong Kong from the
Islands.
‘ None of the stories coming from
Spanish sources appear quite so ridicu-
lous as the statement that Commodore
Dewey fired petroleum bombs. There
is no such weapon in 'the American
navy, nor would there be any use for
it. The ordinary srevio: shell is very
much more destructive and quite as
capable of causing a fire in combusti-
ble material. This is plainly shown by
the destruction of ships during the
Japanese-Chinese war. It was a dis-

Led Secretary Herbert to order reduced

SAGASTA MINISTRY FALLING.
Hndrid Glamoring— for ““‘nr to the
Bitter End.”
London, May 4.——'I‘he Madrid
respondent of the Daily Mail,
graphing Tuesday, says:
“There is no longer any doubt that
the internal situation is causing the
Government almost as much uneasi.
ness as the external. Last night’s dem—
onstration was one of the most serious
in some time, since those openly par-
ticipating showed their revolutionary
tendencies.
“Cries were raised of ‘Down with the
Bourbons!’ ‘Long live Don Carlos!’
‘Long live the republic!’ and ‘Long live
VVeyleri’
"The first move of the demonstrat-
ors, over 1,000 strong, was to the house
of Gen. Weyler, with the object of
cheering him. He did not appear; and
the crowd then went to the residence of
Senor Sagnsta, where the Ministers
were in conference, and shouted for his
resignation.
“Senor Aguilcra, Civil Governor of
Madrid, broke up the procession with
the aid of the police, who were badly
stoned and had to charge the crowd.
The authorities thereupon met Senor
Aguilera, who announced his- intention
of resigning, saying that it cost him
great trouble to repress such manifes-
tations and that he was not able to an-
swer for order with the powers at his
disposal.
“Thereupon the edict was issued
placing Madrid under martial law, and
the Military Governor, Gen. Daban, re-
ceived stringent orders from Gen. Cor-
rea, the Minister of War, for the pres-
ervation of peace.”

TVar Increases Immigration.
Washington, May 4.-—Commissioner
I‘. V. Powderly says that the anticipa-
tion of the present war seemed to have
had the effect of increasing immigra-
tion to this country. Many of those
who came believed that the enlisting
of a great number of men in the army
would leave vacant positions to be
filled by others, and acknowledged they
had come here expecting more chance
of work because of the war. The fig-
ures for March show an increase in
immigration for that month over 1897
of 6,000.

TO HOLD PHILIPPINES.
[rive Timur-ad 'l‘roops'wnl Be Sent
from San Francisco.
Washington, May 4.—-Th‘e President
and the Cabinet have decided 'to be
prepared to hold the Philippines now
that Commodore Dewey has wiped the
Spanish flag from the Island.‘ The
President is assured that Commodore
Dewey is able to take care of himself,
and his fleet, but the Executive is anx-
ious to give him all the support neces-
sary to hold the islands after he has
landed.
The anxiety to hear officially from
the Commodore increases hourly, and
although orders to send troops to Ma-
nila will not be issued until Commo-
dore Dewey communicates with the
Navy Department, it has been practi-
cally decided to mobilize the State
troops and volunteers of California and
other ‘i‘.‘esicrn States at San Francisco
and to have them ‘ready to sail for the
Philippines at any time.
It was decided that from five thou-
sand to six thousand volunteers will be
sent, and that they will be placed on
fast steamers, as well as on the cruis-
ers Charleston and Philadelphia, which
are now being prepared at Mare Island,
and tlzen rushed across the Pacific at
full speed. Supplies, ammunition and
coal will also be sent.
This will be the first time that the
United States has even sent troops to
[and in a foreign country, and the ar-
rival of the United States volunteers
will be a great surprise to Manila; but
they go prepared to occupy the islands
and hold them until the President and
the Cabinet are ready to announce the
disposition of them after the war.
The State troops will be called upon
for this exitieditlon, because there are
not enough regulars on the Pacific
:cast to make up the number required.
The California, \K'ashington and Ore-
gon troops will be first selected, and if
these are not enough volunteers from
other Western States will be called
upon.
It has not been decided yet who will
have command, but the name of Gen.
Fitzhugh Lee, who will be nominated
to-day as major-general,.has been men-
tioned. Gen. Merritt, who is in charge
of the Department of the East, has
been here in consultation with the
President in regard to this matter,
and his name has also been mentioned
In connection with these forces, but it
is understood he is to have better duty
and he will not be sent to the Pacific
against his will.
Pending the advices from Commo—
dore Dewey, the preparations for this
predition will be made with all possi-
I:-lc haste.
It is also understood that the Ad-
ministration has sent dispatches to
Commodore Dewey, conveying congrat-
ulations on his great victory and in-
forminghim of the intended expedition
to aid him. It is thought that this
message can be returned to Commo-
dore Dewey on the dispatch boat which
will bring his official account of the
battle, or if he has taken possession of
the cable it can be handed directly to
him at Manila.
TO EXCHANGE ISLAN 08.
Trade with Great Britain of Philip-
pines for “fast Indies Suggested.
Washington, May 4.—VVhat will be
done with the Philippine Islands is still
a, subject of discussion in Administra-
tion circles and among Senators. There
Is a strong desire to have the islands
pass into the possession of Great Brit-
ain. One suggestion made is to trade
the Philippines for Jamaica, the Ber-
mudas and the Bahamas. Whether
England would consent to this transfer
is, of course, a question to be deter-
mined later, but it is felt that the
Philippines would be of far greater
value to Great Britain than the small
islands in and around the West Indies.
At the same time, any disposition
which the United States makes of the
Islands is apt to prove disturbing to the
peace of the world. Neither Germany
nor Russia will see such an important
strategical base as the Philippines pass
into the possession of Great Britain
withodt a protest.
It is expected, however, that if the
islands go to Great Britain she will be
fully able to take care of herself, Ger—
many and Russia to the contrary not-
withstanding.
Dlplomnt Says Peace.
‘Paris, May 4,—ThecJour quotes “an
American diplomat occupying an ofl’i-
cial position in Paris” as saying:
“I believe the victory at Manila will
end the war. I am almost certain
European intervention is going to oc-
cur, and this time the United States
will be disposed to welcome any peace
overtures of the powers. We will re-
turn the Philippine Islands and ask
for no indemnity. We only want one
thing, the recognition and indepen—
dence of Cuba. On that basis and un-
der these conditions we will lay down
our arms. It is possible peace is near
if Spain is reasonable.”
“’31- Has Cost $102,000,000.
Washington, May 4.—"The cost of
the war is rap-idly becoming manifest,”
said a Treasury official upon learning
of the deficiency oppropriation request-
ed by Secretary of the Navy Long.
"During the past two months over
$102,000,000 has been expended or will
be in addition to the regular appropria-
tions for the War and Navy Depart-
ments. The first call was for the $50,-
000,000 defense fund, which has been
followed by a demand for $34,000,000 by
Secretary Alger and yesterday Secre-
tary Long requested $18,470,000.”
Looks for a. Quick Dosh.
W'ashington, May 4.——Rear Admiral
John G. Walker, retired, commenting
on the Manila victory, said:
“The Spaniards have undoubtedly be-
:ome desperate, and soon will have to
do something to prop up their so-called
honor and save the fast falling dynas—
ty. For these reasons I think it is fair
to assume that the Spanish navy will
undertake some bold movement in the
near future.”
New York Harbor Is Iimprcgnable.
Vs’ashington, May 4,—New York har—
her is now considered impregnable by
the army and navy experts. During
the past six weeks $6,660,000 has been
used in fortifying it. No Spanish vessel
has such guns as are mounted at
Sandy Hook. and no Spanish vessel
could enter by way of Sandy Hook or

work of submarine mines.
